Tuscon.

The Horrific Shootings today, has given me and all of us a prospective of American politics. It is very sad, that we as a country have had a dark history of civil servants being on the targeted list of madmen's bullets. But, we are not going to head back into those turbulent times, because we are a better country.

On Facebook, I read some of the comments from the extreme right. It's a sheer fact that they are obsessed with violence and to inflict harm on Democrats and the President. It is not a fact, that the Tuscon incident is a result of Extreme right rhetoric. However, it should give those that are over the "Right" to straighten up, and do not play into the anger of people. I am not joining in the leftist banter that Sarah Palin is responsible. But, I am saying that she should at least consider that her "crosshair" graphics on her Facebook page could have had negative effects on Gifford's district. That her talk must be elevated, and not entice violence.

Sharron Angle, the Republican opponent to Harry Reid in 2010 needs to come out and retract her "Second Ammendment Remedies" speech. And any Tea Partier that sees any person in their movement wanting to use violence to get their way, they need to report them.

There has been a threat all around the world for those that are in civil service, that they can be the victims of assassins. America has been a place where this doesn't happen all to frequently. But that's because, we are people that believe in peaceful process. So, any rhetoric that compromises our value of this process needs to be strongly opposed.

We all need to pray for Gabrille Giffords and we also need to pray for the others that were killed (including a 9 year old girl) and the several wounded. We should not be afraid to express and peacefully assemble as it is dutifully promised in the First Amendment of the Constitution. Ironically, Congresswoman Giffords read the First Amendment on the house floor before this incident. We need to keep the American spirit alive.

God bless you and America,
